Mon, 02 Jul 2012 19:02:00 +0000http://www.droid-life.com/?p=74585#comment-1896985That I can’t say for sure. But there is no charge on my credit card right now for the Nexus 7 I preordered Thursday.

Mon, 02 Jul 2012 18:52:00 +0000http://www.droid-life.com/?p=74585#comment-1896965Really? But wasn’t the final total “reserved” on your bank account first though? Then it was removed a few days later?

Mon, 02 Jul 2012 16:46:00 +0000http://www.droid-life.com/?p=74585#comment-1896768I don’t think this is true. According to the e-mail I received from Google CS, after I called them about it, they said that the reserved amount stays in your account until the item ships. The guy even compared this to when you stay at a hotel. You pay for the first night, then you pay the rest when you check out.

But then again, maybe they’re wrong, who knows for sure. Can anyone who’s pre-ordered the Nexus 7 through Google confirm this? Has the “reserved” amount cleared from your bank account yet? Let us know!

Also, when pre-ordering from Amazon.com, they never put a hold on your money. You pay whey they ship your items, and not before.

Mon, 02 Jul 2012 16:42:00 +0000http://www.droid-life.com/?p=74585#comment-1896761Yeah, exactly! Used games, old tabs, phones(I think), etc. all can be used towards the purchase. Pretty f’n awesome, I must say.

Mon, 02 Jul 2012 16:41:00 +0000http://www.droid-life.com/?p=74585#comment-1896760“could be used on the retail version”?? What makes you think the retail version’s software would be any different than the Google I/O version?

Mon, 02 Jul 2012 16:34:00 +0000http://www.droid-life.com/?p=74585#comment-1896753Well..considering it’s somewhat of a limited edition white Nexus 7, I’d say there should be a lot of interest. Maybe not now, but soon I bet.

But who am I to know the future?

Mon, 02 Jul 2012 16:30:00 +0000http://www.droid-life.com/?p=74585#comment-1896743Given that this is a Kindle Fire-Killer I can’t imagine Amazon wants to support it.

Mon, 02 Jul 2012 16:29:00 +0000http://www.droid-life.com/?p=74585#comment-1896742A lot of companies do this – they reserve the amount on your card/account to make sure you have the funds. This will go away in a few days, freeing up the money. Once it ships they’ll put the charge through for real.

Mon, 02 Jul 2012 16:28:00 +0000http://www.droid-life.com/?p=74585#comment-1896738Google is really pushing the Play Store for devices, so I kinda doubt it, at least initially. I think they’re partnering with *select* Best Buys.

Mon, 02 Jul 2012 16:27:00 +0000http://www.droid-life.com/?p=74585#comment-1896737Only for I/O. The retail versions have a dark grey back.

Mon, 02 Jul 2012 16:26:00 +0000http://www.droid-life.com/?p=74585#comment-1896736Yeah, the display models were all dark grey back. The Android DevRel folks confirmed white was the special I/O version only.

Mon, 02 Jul 2012 16:25:00 +0000http://www.droid-life.com/?p=74585#comment-1896733Do we know if it will be sold at any other venues (i.e. Amazon) I have a huge amount of cash on Amazon gift cards and was hoping to pick this up via Amazon. Can anyone confirm?
